Pop rock is a sub genre of pop music, it has the 
catchy pop style with light lyrics. Its originated in 
the 1960’s in UK and USA. The typical 
instruments used in this are electric guitar, bass 
guitar, drums. The artists which made this genre 
famous are: Elton John, Paul McCartney, The 
Everly Brothers, Rod Stewart, Chicago and 
Peter Frampton. There are some songs which 
are of this genre: Diamonds (Rihanna), Love 
Never Felt so Good(Justin Timberlake), Bang 
Bang (will.i.am), much more.
The music used in the genre is commonly 
sad but this doesn’t limit the genre here. 
Nowadays this genre has become very wide 
and its with very new variations. The lyrics 
and the music is mainly to pump the 
listeners.
The lyrics are very light and catchy and 
depends on the song, they are not all the 
time sad or pumping but they are different. 
Mostly the upbeat music is taken as pumping 
music.
Mise en Scene includes the things which makes 
the video or picture more realistic. The mise en 
scene of the video depends on the lyrics but 
mostly the clothing in the videos is of dark 
colors and lighting is also low-key lighting which 
make it more sad and depressing. There is no 
such make-up used according to my research. 
There is no specific location used and the facial 
expressions are usually sad and sorry which 
makes this more of a depressing genre.
The camera shots are widely used in the 
videos of this genre, which include close-ups, 
wide shot and extreme close up, mainly 
of the artists e.g. If the artist is smoking then 
close-up on the smoke coming out from 
his/her mouth. If there is any scar then it 
would focus the scar.
Every music gives you feel e.g. soft music 
relaxes you, sad music makes you sad and 
rock music pumps you. This genre is also 
the same as rock because this pumps you 
and forces you to do something with a 
extreme force.
